Professorville is a historic district in Palo Alto, California, established as a residential community for Stanford University professors. Bounded by Addison Avenue, Waverley Street, Kingsley Avenue, and Ramona Street (though the community recognizes a larger area extending to Cowper Street, Embarcadero Road, and Emerson Street), the district showcases homes designed by architect Bernard Maybeck. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a California Point of Historical Interest, Professorville reflects the early development of faculty housing adjacent to the university campus.
